Okay we are not naive, we know that Google knows stuff about us...but what exactly do they know?

how much does google know about you

Google collects three kinds of data about you

1. Things you do

When you use Google services — for example, do a search on Google, get directions on Google Maps, or watch a video on YouTube — Google collects data to make these services work for you. This can include:

 
  • Things you search for
  • Websites you visit
  • Videos you watch
  • Ads you click on or tap
  • Your location
  • Device information
  • IP address and cookie data

 

2. Things you create

 

If you are signed in with your Google Account, Google stores and protects what you create using Google services. This can include:

  • Emails you send and receive on Gmail
  • Contacts you add
  • Calendar events
  • Photos and videos you upload
  • Docs, Sheets, and Slides on Drive
 

3. Things that make you “you”

When you sign up for a Google account, Google keeps the basic information that you give them. This can include your:

  • Name
  • Email address and password
  • Birthday
  • Gender
  • Phone number
  • Country
